Chapter 485 Dagger

The first official program broadcast of Magic Network set off a wave in a quarter of the southern region - almost overnight, this incredible, novel and interesting thing that can make people see the distant scenes and is open to the whole people, and has become the focus of discussion. In areas that cannot be covered by Magic Network communication, people also know the existence of Magic Network radio: the newspaper published quickly used a whole page to introduce the first Magic Network radio, which explained to people the basic concepts of Magic Network communication, the basic concepts of radio programs, and the general content of the first issue of "Witch Time". As this issue of the newspaper was published together, there was another thing:

A thin book called "The White Knight".

This is a book with only a few dozen pages, and the paper and binding are cheap and simple, which is completely different from the long, heavy and expensive scholar books in the past, but it is still a real book.

This cheap book, which only sells ten copper plates, is the first book in the Southland for the whole people, and its content is simple and simple. It uses similar techniques to tell the story of the birth of the White Knight in the first half, and the second half is the author's reflection on the operation of the Holy Light Church and his perception of the Holy Light. Between the lines, a way of holy light that is completely different from the sermons in the pastors and directly starts from "people" has triggered heated discussions among countless civilian believers.

Some people were deeply touched, some were half-believing, but there was no doubt that the authority of the Holy Light Church was gradually disintegrating among these people.

This is a natural result: Although the believers of the Holy Light Church are wide, it is impossible for everyone to be a devout believer in the church. What most ordinary people follow the church and ask for is only a peace of mind. These shallow believers’ understanding of the Holy Light scriptures is very shallow and one-sided, and not very firm, so it is of course quite easy to change.

After all, the new doctrine of holy light is still "holy light", which sounds like the same, and as long as it is "almost", most ordinary people will not spend time and seriously distinguish: their greater energy should be devoted to their own lives.

Of course, there are unswerving church supporters among the common people. Even though the Government Affairs Office has completely blocked the church's missionary path, created a two-month vacuum of faith, and the propaganda power from newspapers and magic networks, there will still be people who insist on the correctness of the old church. This is inevitable - but they are only a few after all, and as time goes by, their transformation is only a matter of time.

For those believers of alien gods who do not pay much attention to the faith of Holy Light, their biggest feeling at this moment is "rest and peace of mind", because someone finally stood up to control the extreme atrocities of the Church of Holy Light - they did not seem to notice that Cecil's Weekly "Faith and the Church" section not only discusses Holy Light, but the common sense of major churches is also implanted in subtle ways... Or, they have noticed, but for most ordinary people, their sensitivity in this regard is far less than that of those professional clergy.

In the Lord Cecil's mansion, Gao Wen looked at the report Hetty submitted to him - it contained the sales of the book "White Knight" and the distribution of newspapers in various places, as well as the random survey of Magic Network programs around Cecil City. There was a lot of content, but the general direction was basically not beyond his expectations.

"There will be more newspaper commentary articles and supplements in the future, and there will be regular Magic Network programs. Protestant propaganda warm-up work has begun. Mr. Goldwin Orlando has prepared the article. The article will propose in the newspaper in a discussion manner, "Whether to establish a new order of holy light?". In addition, propaganda guides from all over the country have also begun to take action to ensure that there are enough people to discuss this issue in areas with low literacy rates and no Magic Network signals."

Hetty reported on the progress of various work, while the ancestors in front of her showed a satisfied smile.

"Very good," Gao Wen nodded and put down the report information casually. "We should start this work from the grassroots people - those priests have been high for too long, and they did not realize that the vast majority of ordinary people are the foundation of their church. Once ordinary people lose trust and awe of the church, the collapse of the Holy Light Church does not require a single shot."

Standing behind Gao Wen, Rebecca listened to the conversation between the two with a cute look (she came to report the technical information of the Magic Network broadcasting system), and at this time, she couldn't help but say: "This way, can you really drive those charlatans out of Lu'an Cathedral?"

"What we are doing now is to drive out the influence of those 'charlatans' from the hearts of the civilians in the southern border, but this is a very long-term project," Gao Wen shook his head. "People's hearts are easy to shake, but not so fast. The Church of Holy Light has been active in Ansu for hundreds of years, and its influence is deeply rooted. It takes a long time to expel them from the hearts. It is the first step to make people question the church, and the second step to establish a new church. After that, we will take several years, or even more than ten years to replace the old doctrine with new doctrines little by little, so that people can recognize this kind of change of customs from the bottom of their bones. This is not something that can be easily done in a few issues of newspapers and programs."

"Wow—" Rebecca widened her eyes in surprise, "Is it going to change people's minds so long?"

Hedy glanced at the roe deer: "Nonsense, it took you eight years to change the problem of painting beards on the teacher's face, not to mention that what we want to change now is the thoughts of hundreds of thousands or even millions of people."

Rebecca stuck out her tongue: "Where are the priests in Lu'an? When will they be driven out?"

"They will leave before that - I don't plan to let them stay in the southern border for so long," Gao Wen said casually. "The influence of the Holy Light Church will take a long time to remove, but those priests are different... to drive them away, only one rage from the people."

Hetty couldn't help but frown: "Can that guy Amber really do it..."

Gao Wen glanced at Hedy, smiled and shook his head: "To be honest, you underestimated her."

Hetty seemed half-believing and half-doubted: "Is that..."

"When fighting with people, Amber may be afraid of anyone, but at the bottom of the society, she has a talent beyond your imagination when she is engaged in destruction and infiltration with her own hands," Gao Wen said, pulling out a stack of materials from the desk. "You should have seen the news that the military intelligence agency has spread from Lu'an City, so you should also take a look at these things."

Hurty took the materials in confusion, and looked at them with a look of shock.

"The people who support the cathedral and those who oppose the cathedral have begun to confront each other, and the priesthood has also appeared. Rumors about former bishop Lemont are circulating in the church area. There are dozens of true, false, false, and true rumors. The cathedral constantly sends monks and knights of the church to extinguish those rumors and propaganda materials. If they destroy one place, two will appear. Even the curfews, rations, searches, and interrogations of these actions in the process will immediately become new sources of rumors and unstable factors," Gao Wen looked at Hetty's expression and said slowly. "Amber and the squad led by her are always hidden in the crowd. When any incident occurs, they will catch the points that can attract people's attention and debate at the first time, and push them slightly at the most appropriate position... Then, the opposition and mutual suspicion of the crowd will naturally occur."

Hurtie was stunned, while Gao Wen continued slowly: "In this process, Amber and her team members caught almost all the moments when the clergy showed their ugly appearance. These "moments" became the pictures and images you and I saw. After passing through the hands of Godwin Orlando, these pictures and images will become newspapers and leaflets distributed throughout the country. In the near future, they will also become programs broadcast by Magic Network. The anger towards the priests in Lu'an Cathedral will spread from inside Lu'an City to outside the city and eventually become a group of people."

Hetty looked up and looked at Gao Wen with an incredible expression: "Did you teach her these...?"

"I taught her part, the most basic part, and then she solved all the details by herself and trained her subordinates into experts in this field," Gao Wen said, with a little sigh in her tone, "She is really... very good at using poison-tempering daggers."

Hetty didn't know what to say for a moment, she only knew that for the first time she felt that the half-elf who looked annoyed and cowardly on weekdays... was a strong man.

It's even a little chilling.

...

Amber is really good at using poison-tempering daggers, and she has become more and more sure of this recently.

The destruction of Lu'an City is still continuing and gradually reaching a critical stage.

The emotions of opposition and doubt are spreading from the outer city to the inner city, and the wavering of people's hearts is no longer limited to civilians. Now, even the clergy who believe in the God of the Holy Light has a serious sense of distrust of the cathedral.

In the secret stronghold, members of the operation team are reporting the latest situation: "Boss, it can be confirmed that a group of low-level priests have been publicly punished recently, and many people have been locked up in the underground of the church area to perform ascetic repentance, with more people than the last time."

In response to this, Amber just nodded as expected: "The second batch of leaflets sent to the inner city will take effect."

A subordinate couldn't help but sigh: "I really didn't expect that... After the first batch of leaflets were destroyed, there were even priests in the church area who would hide those promotional materials..."

"Those charlatans are also humans. Since they are humans, there are people," Amber fiddled with the small dagger in his hand, watching the poisoned blade emitting a slight blue-purple halo under the dim starlight, and said carelessly, "When the first batch of leaflets entered the city, the priests in the marginal area might have just become curious about it, and were aroused by the contents of the leaflets. However, at that time they were still loyal to the church and the cathedral - but the cathedral itself obviously did not think so. The cathedral people did not trust those low-level priests and priests. They amplified the impact that the leaflets might have had and directly treated the people in the church area as a "potential heresy of the wavering faith"... and then the situation could only worsen."

"But then again, boss, how did you determine how the cathedral will react? How did you know that the cathedral will definitely miscalculate the situation in the church area?"

Amber glanced at the questioning subordinate: "It's very simple. When the cathedral took action, I went to the small church area."

"ah?"

"The cathedral's magic array is a bit troublesome, but the chapel cannot stop me," Amber said slowly, "Before the monks' actions, I hid a large number of leaflets in various chapels. The long-term blockade has accumulated a lot of high-pressure emotions among the priests, and the appearance of the leaflets has caused their mutual trust to reduce. In this case, many leaflets suddenly appeared. Even the chapel managers did not think of doubt at the first time, but would think that other people in the church were hiding the leaflets because they themselves... were actually shaken.

"Those monks who ruled monks probably found thousands of flyers from the small church area... but in fact, the flyers that actually flowed into the inner city were less than one-tenth of that number."

Seeing the shocked and admiring expressions of his subordinates, Amber just casually flipped the dagger in his hand: "You guys have more things to learn..."

She raised her wrist and the poisoned dagger flew out silently in the night. With a slight sound, the dagger was firmly nailed to a pillar in the room.

"It's almost time to send a message to the headquarters... No matter how slow the people in the cathedral react, they should realize our existence at this moment. We must be prepared for the next move."
